Il is a shock to ell our youthful preju-
dices. but it is undoubtedly fact, that
tho Davy lamp no longer figures among
the safety apparatus of our mines. The
recent mines regulation act settles that
point. An alteration made in the bill
when it was before the house of lords left
M doubtful whether the Davy lamp had
been finally condemned: but Mr. A. II.
Stokes, one of the government inspectors,
has declared in round terms before the
Chesterfield and Midland Counties Insti-
tution Of Engineers that the lamp is
doomed. at the same meeting the faint
praise was heard of the lamp that in q
mine where only candles had been pre-.
viously employed it wight be used to ex.
smine the workings Tor gas; but, as the
royal commission had held that the lamp
q unsafe in q current with a velocity of
~ feet per second, Mr.. Stokes thinks
daat it is excluded from mines by the
fact that the combined rate of the miners
walk and the ventilation Of the mine will
constitute at least that rate of speed in
fhe air passing the lamp. He adds his
svidence that explosions have been caused
md men killed in consequence of the use
a the Davy lamp. The discovery is use
ful, but it is case Of goodby to another

- The foot is very slender and the in
sksp extraordinarily high, result in
urge measure Of the constitutional an
tipathy of the people to walking, as q
8paniard viii ride on horseback when he
has to beg for living. The Germans
have strong. stocky, well developed feet,
inclined to be short, but many Of them
exceedingly shapely for all that. The
French foot is smaller boned and rounder
in outline, q graceful, agile foot, not 30
slender as the Spanish, but longer than
the German. Il does not lack strength,
hut is more remarkable for quickness and
sgility. All the distinguishing qualities
a the nation are embodied in its make
mn. Il Is no slouch of a. foot, I tell you.
Ths Holland foot is very different from
ether the Teutonic or Gallo. 1t is
1mger than either and lower. have
seen little thin Holland women, but four
fest high, with feet o foot long, as sure
- you live. They have the longest, low

perhaps, the negro. whose foot exceeds
the Holland in length Of heel, although it
somewhat resembles it in general make
mp. The Mexican foot is a modification
a the Spanish. II is trife longer and
not quite 30 classical in outline. The
Chinese have a pretty foot, short, small

daintier than the English on Teuton,

saponification and scrubbinr.

There are bath fanatics who ignorantly
think that life without an epidermis is the
only desirable form of existence, The
raptures Of saponification and of scrub
hing are all very well as luxury, though
the inunctions of the Roman therme were
better, because the Gil used after the bath
supplied some prote' ton TO tie abraded
skin. But the fury Of tubing is only for
the strong, and even the strong, if they
practice their rites in a malarious coun-
Try, have been observed to sicken sooner

selves with cleansing, and have not gone

INFANTIlE
SKIN DISEASES.

Our Oldest child, now six years old, when an in
fant six months old was attacked with viruent,
malignant skin disease. All ordinary remedies
failing, we called our family Ihysieian, who at
tempted TO cuIet but spread with almost incred-
fellows person. from the middle Of the back down
10 his knees, was one solid rash, uglv, painful,
biotehed and malicious. We had no rest at night,
no peace by day Finally, We we're advised TO try
the CUTIcuRA RENEDIEs The effect was simply
marvellous. In three or four weeks = complete
cure was wrought leaving the little fellows person
as white and healthy rs though he had never been
attacked. In my opinion your valuable remedies
saved his lie, and to-day he is q strong, healthy
child perfectly we'll, no repetition Of the disease
having ever occurred.
